Andrew Weatherall creates his Masterpiece

The next release in Ministry of Sound’s Masterpiece series of triple-disc mix CDs comes from Andrew Weatherall.

Weatherall’s been in the fabric of British music since the early ’90s, co-founding the fanzine-cum-label Boy’s Own, producing Primal Scream’s seminal Screamadelica and DJing regularly around Europe. He’s recorded his own music, both solo and as part of Two Lone Swordsmen, and has remixed My Bloody Valentine, Mogwai and many more. In 2012 Weatherall remains one of the UK’s most respected selectors, and so is a pretty obvious choice for the Masterpiece challenge – a mix series that has previously enlisted Gilles Peterson, Fabio & Grooverider and more.

His mix leans pretty heavy on his own remixes (of Grinderman, Hardway Brothers, Toddla T, Cut Copy and more), and also features originals from Tornado Wallace, Walls and Todd Terje. Ministry will release it on April 23.
